Cardassian Woman

Civilian

I've always wanted to cosplay a Cardassian, and this year I did it three times over! This was the first of the three costumes.
The dress is based off of one of Garak's outfits from Deep Space Nine. The hair was based off an unused/cut design from (gasp) Star Wars! It was made using plastic cross stitch canvas, quilt batting, black felt, and hair extensions. The base was a $10 costume wig that I took apart and then put back together.
I had allot of problems getting prosthetics in time, so I ended up delving into the realm of latex casting for the first time. The only pieces I didn't make were the forehead and the chin, as a lovely friend gifted those to me, but I made the shoulders/neck, ears, and nose myself.
